Polpetti: Richmond’s Take on Italian Sandwiches
The Balboa was my least favorite out of the three. This Philadelphia-inspired sandwich, named after the protagonist in the Rocky movies, was definitely different. My dad Sean McGrath certainly liked it, saying, “this one is the best.” I liked the movie more. The sandwich consisted of Italian roast pork, broccoli rabe, and sharp provolone, with long hot peppers added. I love spicy food, so the heat wasn’t the problem. The long hot peppers just didn’t fit the sandwich; they were too large, so each bite was really just half meat and half pepper. The broccoli rabe didn’t help either. It adds an off-putting taste in your mouth that you can still feel minutes after taking a bite.

Richmond ranks among 20 best foodie cities on Yelp, WalletHub lists
Richmond recently landed among the top 20 best foodie cities in the nation on two separate national rankings. Why it matters: It's about time our food scene got back in the national spotlight. State of play: Yelp put Richmond at No. 17 and WalletHub landed RVA at No. 20 on their data-driven best foodie cities lists. The rankings used different measures of foodie city greatness but reached the same conclusion: Richmond belongs in the top 20. What they're saying: " Virginia is having a moment," Yelp wrote , noting that three metros in the state cracked its top 20: Richmond (17), D.C. metro/NoVa (6) and Virginia Beach (20). Yelp used restaurant searches, ratings and engagement on its platform, and partnered with Lyft to see how often locals call a ride to or from local restaurants. And in Virginia, Lyft rides to restaurants are nearly twice as frequent as rides to other entertainment destinations, per Yelp. Meanwhile , WalletHub used 28 metrics — including affordability (like restaurant prices and local food taxes), restaurant quality and food diversity — to compare more than 180 cities nationwide. Richmond came in at No. 20 overall, largely for our food diversity, accessibility and quality, which
